Measuring yourself for bespoke jeans
Firstly, tie a ribbon or similar around your waist so that you can measure from there.
We work in both cms and inches, so please choose the one that suits you best. If you have no preference, then in inches please.
1. How Tall Are You?
2. Measure down from waist to knee.
3. Measure down from waist to floor.
4. What is your waist measurement?
5. To get the curve of your hips correct for the pattern take measurements
around your body 3" and 5" down from waist
6. Measurement your hips at their fullest and how far from your waist
this is.
7. Where you would like the waistband of your trousers to start? This
can be on or below the natural waist. Measure around your body at this
point.
8. Measure in a straight line down from your waist to the level of your
crotch to get your crotch depth length. (Easiest done when sitting in a chair - measure down the side from your waist to where the chair is)
9. Measuring from the tape at your natural waist, take the tape down
to
your crotch, underneath and up to the back waist. This measurement is
called
your rise, what is the total rise measurement?
And halfway from the front?
